Despite the fact that polls shows Romney’s to be losing momentum since the second debate, Republicans have been feeding the story that Romney’s upcoming loss will not have been due to his lying (most notably about Jeep moving some U.S. manufacturing operations to China), but due to the stalling of “Mittmentum” caused by Sandy. That’s right, guys — blame the dog!

HAPPY ELECTION DAY

WITH FOND REGARDS FROM

THE ORANGE JUICE BLOG

Best wishes to all on what could, should, and would be a national holiday (if we were actually serious about helping people get to the polls.) Jay Chen, could you propose a bill on that in January? Thanks.

As a candidate, I offer special best wishes to my opponent Sen. Bob Huff, who I very much hope is not mauled by a wild animal or otherwise harmed as he makes the rounds today. Ed Royce needs him healthy tonight — those are broad shoulders for the soon-defeated Congressman to cry be able to cry upon as the evening wears on and Jay Chen rolls up the votes.

Remember, before you go voting — be sure to limber up!

About Greg Diamond

Somewhat verbose worker's rights and government accountability attorney, residing in northwest Brea. General Counsel of CATER, the Coalition of Anaheim Taxpayers for Economic Responsibility, a non-partisan group of people sick of local corruption.
Deposed as Northern Vice Chair of DPOC in April 2014 when his anti-corruption and pro-consumer work in Anaheim infuriated the Building Trades and Teamsters in spring 2014, who then worked with the lawless and power-mad DPOC Chair to eliminate his internal oversight.
Occasionally runs for office to challenge some nasty incumbent who would otherwise run unopposed. (Someday he might pick a fight with the intent to win rather than just dent someone. You'll know it when you see it.) He got 45% of the vote against Bob Huff for State Senate in 2012 and in 2014 became the first attorney to challenge OCDA Tony Rackauckas since 2002.
None of his pre-putsch writings ever spoke for the Democratic Party at the local, county, state, national, or galactic level, nor do they now.
A family member co-owns a business offering campaign treasurer services to Democratic candidates and the odd independent. He is very proud of her. He doesn't directly profit from her work and it doesn't affect his coverage. (He does not always favor her clients, though she might hesitate to take one that he truly hated.)
He does advise some local campaigns informally and (so far) without compensation. (If that last bit changes, he will declare the interest.)
